Miss Universe: a formal complaint


August 31, 2006
Hawkins Dress Jennifer Hawkins and Erin McNaught look good today. And I don't mean in the bodacious-Miss-Universe sense, I mean they've gotten a whole bunch of good PR by agreeing to go to a couple of schoolboys' formals. Daniel Dilbey is taking Hawkins to his up in Bathurst, and Trinity Grammar's Jordan Avramides is taking McNaught to his at the Shangri-La – but only because Hawkins had filming commitments. Sure, their friends might think they're legends right now, and be high-fiving them on a gamble that paid off. But I don't.

This has disaster written all over it. Highly likely, these guys' bravado will collapse in a smoking ruin when these far older, far cooler, intimidatingly attractive women rock up to their formal, forcing them to endure a couple of hours of stammering hopelessness before gratefully escaping at the earliest polite opportunity.

Or, since these guys had the hide to see if Miss Universe wanted to spend an evening in their company, they may well be unbearably cocky, to the point of unpleasantness. I remember Year 12 guys like that – life has a funny way of taking the wind out of their sails by the time they hit 20, and no-one thinks they're cool anymore. Really, which adult wants to spend an evening with the Trinity Grammar Steve Stifler?
